Reversible Contact Logic and Flexible Operation
The NKP-240110 utilizes a highly adaptable internal design that accommodates both normally open (N/O) and normally closed (N/C) electrical signal paths. Rather than requiring distinct model configurations, the operator can switch the function seamlessly by simply rotating the device housing 180 degrees about its horizontal axis during mounting. As the liquid level shifts, the integrated magnet inside the hinged float moves past a hermetically sealed reed switch, triggering an immediate and reliable state change.
Extended Reach and Compact, Maintenance-Free Housing
Explicitly built for environments where space is restricted or top/bottom tank entry is inaccessible, the compact float assembly extends only 2.68 inches into the vessel wall. Thanks to its streamlined mechanical architecture and fully encapsulated design, the switch operates completely maintenance-free. This specific model features an extended 10-meter PVC-clad connection cable, facilitating straightforward, long-distance wiring directly to industrial PLCs, central control rooms, or hazard monitoring panels.
